How can I qualify for financial aid?

A limited amount of financial aid is available. Most M.Eng. students pay full tuition.

Can I get a Teaching Assistantship in MS&E?

Occasionally, but opportunities are limited.

Can I get a Teaching Assistantship elsewhere in the University?

From time to time, other university departments are unable to meet their teaching needs and M.Eng. students may be able to fill the gap. MS&E does not maintain a list of such openings nor does the department typically get involved with helping students secure those opportunities.
